After digging deeper into the cub we decided it's too far gone. Cleaned up the valves and seats, lots of pitting. Adjusted valves and poured a little oil on each one,leaked past almost immediately. Stuck a head gasket on and tightened it down. Zero compression on two cylinders and 5 psi on the other two. Block,head, final drive, radiator and front bolster all have a ton of brazing on them. Governor and starter are rusted solid. Manifold rusted through. Seat,carb, brakes and hydraulic pump are missing. 3 out of 4 tires are shot. Both front rims have rust rot.

Will steal parts off it as needed.
Got my spare car doughnut tires on it to move it around!
$12 worth of cheap spray paint....... It's yard art worthy.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
